Useful advice for travelling to Cape Verde (CV)

The Cape Verde archipelago, located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, at the meeting point of three continents, makes for a true cultural collage. Sky-raising mountain tops and volcanoes, European-looking valleys, desert-like dunes, tropically hot beaches, cities that have been developed both by the Portuguese and the Africans... Flights to Cape Verde islands will guarantee a wonderful holiday time for every traveller. In order for your trip to be safe, you will need to make a few necessary preparations.

Preparing for the trip

Before flying to the Republic of Cabo Verde, you should get vaccinated against yellow fever, diphtheria, and typhoid fever. After arriving, you should look out for mosquito bites and refrain from drinking tap water. Several cases of Zika virus have been reported in Cape Verde; therefore, pregnant women should stay alert.

Travellers from Lithuania will require a visa to enter the country, which can be obtained with the help of a travel agency. This travel visa will cost you about 25 euro, and it can also be acquired at the Cape Verde International Airport.

Transportation and travel charges

Direct flights from Lithuania to Cape Verde are not available, but you can always choose to fly from a neighbour country territory. Different islands of the archipelago are best reached by plane. Main ways of land transport are buses and route taxis.

You can pay for your purchases using the official local currency, Cape Verdean escudos (CVE). One escudo is worth approximately 0.009 euro. Living costs in Cape Verde are lower than in Lithuania. For example, you can order a cup of cappuccino for about 69 escudos and have lunch in a cheap restaurant for 700 escudos. In local shops, a 1.5 litre water bottle will cost you 78 escudos; you can buy one kilogram of rice for about 102 escudos, and one kilogram of chicken breast for roughly 391 escudos. Public transport tickets cost about 44, and a one kilometre long taxi ride will cost you about 150 escudos.
